Radioactive in the form of carbon-14 or tritium labeled reagents, with activities of no more than 6 millicuries may be used on board the Research Vessel (R/V) Katy while either in port or sailing in waters where the Radiation Safety Licensing Branch, Texas Department of State Health Services maintains jurisdiction. 10. Each site shall maintain documents and records pertinent to the operations at that site. Copies of all documents and records required by this license shall be maintained for Agency review at Site 000, 304 East 24th Street, SER 221, Austin, except those required by 25 TAC 289.201(d) that are directly related to radioactive s for human-use and unsealed reference sources for instrument calibration, 25 TAC 289.202(nn), and 25 TAC 289.202(tt). 11. The licensee shall comply with the provisions (as amended) of Title 25, Texas Administrative Code (TAC) 289.201, 289.202, 289.203, 289.204, 289.205, 289.251, 289.252, 289.257.
Page 4 of 5 12. A. Radioactive shall be used by, or under the supervision of, those individuals designated by The University of Texas (UT) at Austin Radiation Safety Committee (RSC) Membership, Kevin N.

The license shall conduct a physical inventory every six months to account for all sealed sources received and possessed under the license. The records of the inventories shall be maintained for inspection by the Agency for three years from the date of the inventory and shall include the quantities and the kinds of radioactive, unique identifying number or serial number, location of sealed sources, the name of the individual taking the inventory, and the date of the inventory. 22. The licensee may dispose of certain radioactive s whose half-lives do not exceed 300 days in accordance with the provisions of25 TAC 289.202(fff)(4). 23. The licensee is authorized to hold radioactive with a physical half-life of less than or equal to 120 days for decay-in-storage and dispose of it as non-radioactive provided the licensee: A. Monitors radioactive at the surface before disposal and determines that the radiation level cannot be distinguished from the background radiation level. All radiation labels will be removed or obliterated. B. Maintains a record of each disposal that includes the date of the disposal, unique identification of the survey instrument used, background radiation level, radiation level measured at the surface of each waste container, and name of the individual who performed the survey. 24. Except as specifically provided otherwise by this license, the licensee shall possess and use the radioactive authorized by this license in accordance with statements, representations, and procedures contained in the following: application dated May 29, 2009, letters dated July 10, 2009, August 28, 2009, February 15, 2010, May 14, 2010, June 15, 2010, July 31, 2013, December 19, 2013, April29, 2016 and Business Information Form dated May 29, 2009.
